The health-care economy is filled with unusual and even unique economic relationships. One of the least understood involves the  1  roles of producer or “provider” and purchaser or “consumer” in the typical doctor-patient relationship. In most sectors of the economy, it is the seller who attempts to attract a(n)  2  buyer with various inducements (引诱) of price, quality, and utility, and it is the buyer who makes the decision. Such condition,
3  , is not common in most of the health-care industry.
In the health-care industry, the doctor-patient relationship is the mirror image of the
4  relationship between producer and consumer. Once an individual has chosen to see a physician—and even then there may be no real choice– it is the physician who usually makes all significant
5  decisions: whether the patient should return “next Wednesday,” w hether X-rays are needed, whether drugs should be prescribed, etc. It is a rare and experienced patient who will
6  such decisions made by experts or raise in advance questions about price, especially when the disease is regarded as
7  .
This is particularly  8  in relation to hospital care. The physician must give evidence of the  9  for hospitalization, determine what procedures will be performed, and announce when the patient may be allowed to leave. The patient may be consulted a bout some of these decisions, but in the main it is the doctor’s judgments that are  10  . Little wonder then that in the eye of the hospital it is the physician who is the real “consumer.” As a consequence, the  11  represents the “power center” in hos pital policy and decision-making, not the administration.
Although usually there are in this situation four recognizable participants —
the physician, the hospital, the patient, and the payer (generally an insurance carrier or government) —the physician makes the  12  for all of them. The hospital becomes an extension of the physician; the payer generally  13  most of the bills generated by the physician/hospital; and for the most part the patient plays a  14  role. We estimate that about 75-80 percent of health-care  15  are determined by physicians, not patients. For this reason, economy directed at patients or the general
are relatively ineffective.

Some years ago when I was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time. The moment was exciting. Salome’s  21  filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so  22  that I decided to write an article about her.
I  23  Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk about her career. She  24  and told me to come to her studio next Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared out of my mind. I  25  I was lying. I was not a writer at all and hadn’t even written a grocery list.
I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday. I sat there  26  , taking notes and asking questions that
all began with, “Can you tell me…” I soon realized that  27  Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The  28  was almost unbearable. I struggled for days  29  draft after draft. Finally I put my manuscript (手稿) into a large envelope and dropped it into a mailbox.
